Is that not where the relevant agencies responsible for child protection such as Tusla and the Garda in Ireland's case should be leading the way, not Facebook? Facebook should report the matter to the relevant agency and it is the agency's call. If the agency wants Facebook's assistance by leaving something online, Facebook could work with it, but Facebook being the sole arbiter in that regard is just not acceptable.
